The City of Covington allowed the property to be re-zoned to allow for fuel pumps which would pave the way for a UDF to open.

However, Kling said, the road was reconfigured in that part of Covington after the company acquired the property.

A neighborhood leader told The River City News that he was told by a company official that the change in traffic flow may limit the amount of cars that would pass the proposed location and that UDF may consider selling the property to allow someone else to develop it.

On Wednesday night, Kling said that the plans for a South Covington UDF are still in motion.
